So I decided to tackle making a diaper cake (2 in this case for twins) and it was definitely not as easy as you would think. Of course, I didn’t pick a simple round one…. I combined different ideas on Pinterest to come up with my own. It was a learning process. I would suggest a simple round cake or at least using a nightgown (without legs). To make mine, I just rolled the diapers and bound with rubber bands. Then I stuffed the outfits and tried to form as best I could. The butts were the hardest part! For the bottom and the head I opened a diaper, filled to form, and used the tabs to hold it together. The pacifiers are tucked under this top diaper and then fastened with pins. I also used hidden safety pins to attached the outfit to the blanket to help hold some of the form. In the end they turned out okay but I won’t do this again! It should make a round cake super easy though. Here are some more pics:
